Nationality

Belgian (BE)

First kart experience

Télécoo (1991)

Started karting regular since

1996 in Hasselt, Houthalen, Lommel, ...
I paused for about 18 years and have found my love back for karting thanks to my race buddy Laurens and OKT-Racing!

Scariest moment on track

1998 in Hasselt: An accident happened before me in a long fast corner. I braked to a full stop, but I got rear ended full speed, what instantly resulted in a whiplash and a blackout...

working point as a driver

Better concentration after stints of 45+ minutes (indoor) & Keeping the pace high when driving alone on track.

What does OKT-Racing look like in 3 years

More members, a large trophy list, more endurance races (e.g. 24h).
